• Numbers 3.0.4
I would like to change the fill(color) of the 2D Pie Chart.
The defaut cell fill color selections are great! However, none of the 2D Pie Chart "Chart Colors" match the default cell selections.
Is there a way I can create a "Chart Colors" pallette that matches the cell default fill selections?
Thanks in advance for your help!
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.3)
Hi Ian,
Tried that out, as I hoped it would provide a way of getting past the six-colour limit of pie chart wedges.
Unfortunately, no. Still limited to six distinct colours, which repeat if there are more than 6 wedges. (worst case scenario occurs when there are seven, thirteen, etc.
Regards,
Barry
Hi Barry,
Click on the pie, then click on a wedge to select it. From the Colours Window, drag a colour to the wedge:
Tested in Numbers 4.1.1 on a Mac.
Hi le220,
I don't have iOS, so I am not able to test!

Hi Zane,
I don't know if this answers your question, but the colour window can be brought to view by Menu > View > Colors (shift command c).
Choose a palette in the colour window. Drag a colour to a pie wedge:
Just playing with this, select the chart, then click on the pie. Clicking on a colour (rather than dragging) changes the label text colour. Cool!
(or maybe yuck).
Regards,
Ian.
Thank you Ian! This is exactly what I needed 😀
I have the same question but for Numbers on iOS. I see there is no option, the color of pie chart spawn randomly, no way to adjust to the color of the table.
Aha! Another new feature (re)introduced!
My test was in 3.6.2
